Question

I saw onthe pesach list that coke is ok for ashkenazim on pesach- does this mean it doenst need a special pesach symbol? I was always under the impression that coke had corn syrup in it which would be kitniyos? Please explain. Thanks

In order to be a problem on Pesach for Ashkenazim, the Kitniyos must be more than 50% of the product. That is certainly not the case with Coke. AA
